| Description | Brooklyn (Brooklyn) 12 Star (Brooklyn) 12 (return game - TIE – 8 innings) (BDE: “This result [tie] was rather unexpected, as in the first the Brooklyns did not make much of a ‘show’ against the Stars, who scored some twenty-three or twenty-four runs, to the Brooklyn’s six runs. On Saturday the Stars were short of some three or four of their first nine, including Holt, their regular pitcher, but still they ought to have played a better game than they did.”) (NYC: “It proved to be one of the best contested games played on the same grounds this season. The day was cold and unpleasant, and the high wind rendered good batting and fielding anything but an easy undertaking, as the fielders hands were cold, and the wind prevented the balls from going far. … At the close of the game, the Brooklyn men were entertained at the Star rooms, and good feeling prevailed among all.”) |
